We offer RORO shipping services fro cars and trucks and can also supply containers for shipping personal effects.

RORO SHIPPING (ROLL ON ROLL OFF) - For cars and Trucks

This method of shipping involves the export of cars,trucks,boats and buses under the decks of Large ships. The vehicles are driven into the vessels and strapped down to avoid any movements during transit.

The loading and unloading of vehicles into the ships require special docks. This therefore means that not all countries can unload/load vehicles this way. The following is a list of countries that currently offer the RORO method of shipping :

RORO ships sail regularly from Tilbury, Sheerness,Southampton and Felixstowe ports. You will be expected to deliver the car to the port of export. If you are unable to deliver yourself, we can offer collection / delivery services at a cost. Please enquire when booking your shipment.

CONTAINER SHIPPING METHOD - For cars and Personal effects

Cargo such as cars and household goods can also be shipped inside specially built steel containers. These container are built to withstand the elements during transit. This protect you cargo against salty water,winds, scratches & dents.

The Most common containers are 20 foot container and 40 foot containers. The 20 ft container can carry one vehicle as wells as a few boxes of personal effects. The 40 foot container can carry two or three cars, or the contents of a 2 bedroom house.

We can usually deliver the container to your home address,office or even warehouse so that you can load the goods yourself. You will have three hours in order to do the loading then we will transport it back to the port for export. If you go ave the allocated 3 hour loading time, an extra hourly charge may apply.

CONTAINER VS RORO

Containers are more secure than RORO because your vehicle is hidden from all the elements

RORO ships are quicker and unloading time are faster than for containers. You will get you your car quicker on the other end.

RORO method is cheaper as there is no need for expensive loading equipment at the docks.

Containers are suitable if you want to ship personal goods securely together with the vehicle
